Can we also show and group by Arch based distro name such as Manjaro, Garuda, etc.?

[agron2017]

Hi,

There is a list of Arch-based distributions and I was wondering if we could make a list of arch based distros and their usage?

The list is here
Arch-based distributions

The idea is to show each arch based distro, including arch itself, in a list like the web browsers or file managers.

However, if there are 20 Arch clients and 15 Manjaro, it should not show as 35 Arch and 15 Manjaro, right?

Thanks for your input. I haven't really thought about this so far. While I am not sure what we would do with this information, it seems people on Arch derivatives are already using pkgstats. Usinf their keyrings as a rough estimate: https://pkgstats.archlinux.de/compare/packages#packages=arcolinux-keyring,cachyos-keyring,endeavouros-keyring,manjaro-keyring,omarchy-keyring

1. First thing I'd do is to extent pkgstats-cli so it will send the OS id. Report OS id pkgstats-cli#50
2. Then we'll see what we can do with this information on the server side
